Well that just sucks... Sometimes fish do that.

My hippo tang took a liking to zoas, but then stopped, so I thought she ate the non toxic ones leaving the bad tasting ones alone. Well now I don't have a single zoa in my tank. She took a liking to the rest, and now I have none. Oh well, won't be buying more zoas.

If it continues you will have to decide on getting rid of the fish or the coral it likes.

We gave away all the frags that were loose or broken off, before they died. That only leaves us with three pieces, that are actually attached and growing over the rock. And yet... there are 2 more peices at the back of the tank?!

I didn't get him on tape carrying the coral (which was actually quite cute/funny!), but i did get him trying to break more off. Several times. Right in front of me. He isn't even hiding it anymore. it's like he's attacking it- and yet I dont get why he puts it all at the back, like he's nesting.

Also, I attached several new zoa frags around the tank...my lawnmore goby picked one up and tossed it to the sand, too!! WTH?

Stupid fish, can't have anything nice

I had a maroon clown from hell that would do that to me. I had a beautiful new Blue Blasto come into the tank... left the room for an hour to come back and find the damn fish had dropped it sunny side down on a nem. Killed half the f***ing thing! I had to hide it from her.

She also decided to frag my red digi colony for me as it was getting in her swimming path. How nice.
